Hiya,

When using the dedicated indexer with a front end window, during the 'pause' between sweeps, is there a way to hook into a routine to auto-logoff if a certain time has been reached …

TIA

Simon

While the windows of the dedicated workstation is in the CREATE event:

call showOpenEngine(1)

seconds=60 ;*whatever delay you deem sufficient

call Set_Bgnd_IX_TIME( seconds)

call Set_IDXSvr(1)

*setup for logout this evening

itime=iconv( '23:45','MT')

if time() lt itime then

cmd=SHUTDOWN': @fm: @fm: '23:45'

foo=Set_Property('SYSTEM', 'IDLEPROC', cmd)

end

Subroutine SHUTDOWN( arg)

declare function Utility

call Set_IDXSvr(0)

call Set_Bgnd_IX_Time(0)

call delay(30) ;*waiting for indexing process to finish (maybe not needed)

call Yield()

x=Utility("DESTROY", "SYSTEM")

return

Dave

Hi Dave,

Thanks for that - I had delved around a few other posts and help texts and came across pretty muchn the same solution.

Thanks,

Simon
